Paul Pogba’s representative, Rafaela Pimenta, suggested that the French international, under the threat of a heavy suspension, has not given up.

Against all odds, Paul Pogba does not waver. In any case, this is what his lawyer and agent Rafaela Pimenta assures. Indeed, the latter affirmed that the French international from Juventus Turin, who tested positive for testosterone after a Serie A match last August and risks a two-year suspension, remained strong while waiting for his judgement.

“He thinks about staying in shape and working every day,” she told CalcioMercato. He is very mentally strong. He followed all the procedures and now we are waiting for the next steps. »

And added: “What we can do is transmit strength and positivity to him. We must make him understand that we are there, because it is in difficult times that friendship shows itself. Juventus, certainly, represents his home for him. »

As a reminder, the 2018 world champion was provisionally suspended by the Italian anti-doping agency (Nado) on September 11. He requested a second opinion, the results of which were confirmed on October 6.
